Hi people,

Merlin Malt 01 - £649
Scott Aspect 10 - £649
Cannondale F4 - £679
Genisis 20 core - £599

I do quite fancy the F4 but cannot find alot of info/reviews ect.
Any advice would be appreciated !!!!

Depends what you after have a look at one of these.
Bianchi Call 8200 (light full sus)
Bianchi Mutt 7400
Felt Q720
Giant Yukon FX2 (basic full sus)
Giant XTC 3.5
KONA Hoss
KONA Caldera
KONA Blast Deluxe
The Bianchi Call 8200 gets you a great XC full suspension frame that is capable of high end racing so you can just upgrade the parts later.
The Giant XTC 3.5 is probably the best value bike for the money with plenty of good parts.
Some of the Konas are very light frame though they tend to not be as well specked as the Giants for the price.0 -
Thats really put a cat amongst the pigeons, took me a week to get to the orginal shortlist!!
I am after hardtail able to cope with a good pounding on the blackruns of north wales, will work my way through your list, cheers0 -
Don't forget the Boardman Comp, good spec. Built to take a pounding.
